Who cares what Internet Explorer people respond to? They also respond to emails from Citibank, Comet Cursor, and Bonzai Buddy! Oh... you meant "i.e.," as in the Latin id est (English translation: "that is").
Although I hate replying to my own comment... this is not a Russian joke, rather, it's a reference to the following Simpsons (4F22, The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson):

Clever Troll, but not good enough. You see, dear user, that the results from 21-30 from a Firefox search are going to be different from 1-10 for an IE search.
The only painful bit is getting the 3.5mm jack inserted into the back of your skull.
Just be grateful it's the back of your skull they're using. And it's only 3.5mm, and not 1/4", RCA, or direct speaker wires. Although, optical might not be too bad...
So let's branch off into 800 money-losing "businesses" and flush a pile of cash the size of Nebraska down a shithole so someone can stand up in a meeting and look brilliant by saying "I think we should return to our core business."
Was I the only one who read this as "a pile of cash the size of Netscape"?
Is it correct to say, though, that 0-1 assumes the existance of -1? I.e., it's true that it's the same as 0+(-1), but that has to come after the existance. Doesn't the concept of subtraction automatically imply negative numbers?
Come on, people, do you really _want_ 1000 pages of Computer Shopper, instead of browsing at any number of online searchable sites?
Yes I do. Even in computers today, not *everything* is a commodity, to be purchased by comparing to see which widget is $0.05 less than the next. While price is always important, it's not the MOST important aspect of pretty much anything I buy, which makes sites like pricewatch boring and stale.
Ok, excellent point-- but how would Computer Shopper help you? Of the 1000 pages, probably 900 were just advertising... it wasn't Computer Reviewer.

I think pricewatch completely destroyed any need for an outdated, heavy, tiny print dead tree publication. Don't get me wrong... I miss computer shopper too, but nostalgically, not for it's uses.
That said, Alice and Bill had a great column, which I did read religiously. Unfortunely, it wasn't enough to motivate me to buy the entire magazine.

Paypal Grinds To A Halt

I feel a lot safer since I've installed paypalbuddy.exe, in fact I know that I'm safe because if I check my task manager I can see that paypalbuddy.exe is using 90% of my CPU to constantly encrypt my paypal traffic, even when I'm not at the computer! I forwarded this handy utility to my mother-in-law and she loves it too.
Interesting. I also forwarded to my mother-in-law, although I did not install it locally...

If I were a carpenter.. ..would people ask me to come hang up their pictures? Level their doors and floors? Build their shed?
I don't know about you, but if they were my family they would.

Oops.
Even worse, the neighbours are starting to complain about the smoke from my kiln drifting across into their garden.
Just tell them not to worry, it's awl write.
You owe me $0.50 to replace the drink that just squirted out of my nose when I read that.

Never judge places you've never been to. That's what they do in Russia.

Does the expression 0-1 prove there's a negative number?
ObSimpsons:
Lisa: Hey, I thought Krusty was Jewish.
Bart: Christmas is a time when people of all religions come together to worship Jesus Christ.
and
Kent Brockman: Yes, whether your Christian or just non-Jewish everyone loves Santa Claus
Akira: Yes, you have very lucky dishes, Mr. Simpson. This soap is from the sacred forests of Hokkaido, renowned for its countless soap factories.
Homer: [thoughtfully] Hokkaido, eh?
And availability in the US outside of Europe is patchy at best.
Luckily, available in the US inside of Europe is good. Good news for anyone working at the embassies, I suppose...

Ummm... actually, I understood that. I was making a joke... by asking _him_ what he was talking about... never mind... ~sigh~
Never before has slashdot posted an article about something that doesn't explain what that something is.
oh wait, they do it all the time
